A big day today for 20 million Android users out there: Samsung has started the process of updating the Galaxy SII to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Sadly, only a few European countries and South Korea will get it this week, although you can flash the official ROM yourself if you so desire (like I did today). Sadlier sadly, its TouchWiz is virtually identical to that of Gingerbread. Update:This is what HTC is doing to Ice Cream Sandwich. And I thought TouchWiz was bad. Please... Just - stop. Stop it. Stop doing this. Go away.

so let's say you don't read tech blogs and have no idea what ICS is, what stock ICS looks like, what Google released on the Nexus phones.. You use your Galaxy S II with TouchWiz, and the next day you get an update.

Well, it's what Nokia did with Symbian Belle. Completely changed the interaction of the mobile OS with new menu structure and apps and desktop.

For my wife, it was a change but she has adjusted and I think the OS has vastly improved over previous implementations of Symbian OS on her N7. Takes a brave manufacturer to implement change for the better. If there is a problem, then the manufacturer can stress it as an optional update not a necessary update.
